Do a Google search of “Crown Moulding” and you will be amazed what advice people give for coping crown moulding. I have yet to try my hand at it, but I will be shortly. When I do, I may give the EasyCoper a try. . . especially if free-handing it with a coping saw fails miserably. The EasyCoper lets you use a jig saw at just the right angle to get those perfect crown moulding joints we all dream of. So why use a mere tool like a coping saw when you can use a power tool instead? Available from Rockler.com for about $35 a pair.
About Marc Lyman
I have purchased several tools “toys” to aid in crown molding slicing, dicing and installation. The EasyCoper is very cool. The hard plastic form holds your jig saw at the proper backcut angle and your inside corner joints are perfect. I’m talking about “stained” joints coming out perfect, not painted joints filled with caulk where a bad cut is hidden. You will be pleased with this!
